New to site

Post by SmallCollegeFBFan »

I just found this site because someone posted it on AGS.

Is everyone at AGS gradually coming over here or are most people here not from AGS?

Glad to see a new board. Always nice to have multiple places to post. What was the motivation for a new board? It seems some people are tired of the admin over at AGS. Did that have something to do with this site?

Thanks

Most folks are alumns of that site you mentioned...

I can only speak for my reasons...

It's simple... ***** and the BS secret society that operates the site...

Here, I know the rules...and the administration of those rules has not changed because of one persons instability...

I know the site administrator...Chris always responds to questions in an honest, open manner...no snide remarks...and definately he doesn't post crap then remove it once the pot is stirred, challenging you to "prove" something...he never calls people "hater" when we disagree with him )wait...I can't think of a disagreement yet)...He doesn't insult a school for not purchasing a banner...

This site can be very boring because of the lack of traffic...but I'm going to stick it out because I know enough folks will eventually tire and depart...and I want to be here when it really takes off...

I still post on that site...but less and less...

Thanks for the explanation. I noticed a thread mentioned this site and soon after the thread was closed.

I can understand your reasoning. Why can't you say the word Ralph? That is who you mean isn't it or is there someone else over there I am not aware of?

I got into a pissing match with ***** (you are correct on who he is)...and in the end I told him he was "Dead to me"...

He still is....I just want to remain consistant... Do you know why it's *****? There's a story behind that, too...

No I don't. I have not seen the argument nor did I know about it. What did he say and what is the story about it?

His screen name use to be the one I won't type...after a series of head-butting with a number of folks over lots of issues, he suddenly because *****...using his admin rights, did a master find and replace...and everywhere his name appeared, it suddenly was *****...

My pissing match was just one of those incidents...I'm retired military, and he belittled military folks and was using the names of the dead from Iraq in a way I (and others, but he'll challenge me to prove that)considered inappropriate...it ended one Friday night with me issuing a challenge...and declaring him dead to me...which he remains... :roll:

Lots more history, but it's really not up to me to go into it because it involves others...I just observed it...

I had noticed that his old name did say *****. Thanks for the background. Seems like he has made a lot of people mad.

Maybe everyone needs to just come over here. ;)

I still post on both sites, although not a heck of a lot during the offseason.
